Description

Bumblebee position - static and dynamic mode bodyflying position. Symmetrical body form. It is possible to use that position for the flying on a low, middle and high wind speed. Wind blows mostly to the front side of the body.


In that position very important to keep wind on the back side of your arms. In this case, the hands should be between a tense and relaxed state.

Legs: Bend them at the knees and pull them up to your chest, creating a compact pose. The legs should be slightly apart, like a bumblebee's, to provide better aerodynamic drag and stability.


Body: Keep a slight forward tilt, but try not to “fall” down. The position of the head is also important: it should be held with the chin up.


Hands: Hold them in a position that helps you maintain balance and control movement. Do not try to actively move your hands, they should be calm but controlling.

I use it for the training sensations - how the wind blowing

Something i teaching to get sensations. Low wind speed.

I helps to my student to do front direction transit from Bumblebee position to Back Neutral position.

Combo with Baby Dragon and Bumblebee positions:

During the anti-clockwise direction carving in a left side Sloth position, i am doing transit to the right side Sloth position, through position Langust or Bumblebee, and after stopped the carving, next do all the same but to the opposite direction and opposite sides.

We just mix Bird and Bee position carving and get Langust position carving!
